Get your lawn breathing again. Power raking removes the built-up thatch and winter debris that chokes out healthy growth. Spring's most important cleanup service.
Get Your Free QuotePower raking uses a machine with metal tines to cut through and pull up the layer of dead grass, stems, and debris that builds up between your soil and live grass. This layer is called thatch.
A thin layer of thatch is fine and actually insulates roots. But when it gets more than half an inch thick, it blocks water, air, and fertilizer from reaching the soil. Your lawn looks dull, grows unevenly, and becomes more susceptible to disease and pests.
Power raking in early spring clears that layer out before the mowing season starts, giving your grass a clean slate to grow from.
Power raking is more aggressive than standard dethatching. It's the right choice when thatch buildup is significant. If you're not sure which your lawn needs, we can assess it and give you a recommendation before any work starts.

Early spring, before your grass really starts growing for the season. In Aurora that's usually late March through early May. You want to do it while the grass is still mostly dormant so you're removing dead material, not damaging new growth.
Done at the right time on a healthy lawn, no. The machine pulls up dead material, not live grass. If your lawn is very thin or stressed, we'll discuss whether power raking is the right approach or if something gentler makes more sense first.
